LEC Week 5 Schedule – July 17-18

LEC is coming back this week after a short break for a few days. Week 5 is starting strong with the spotlight falling onto G2 Esports and MAD Lions, on what seems to be the battle of giants. On Saturday, we have Misfits vs Fnatic, another power struggle since the tables can easily turn for both teams at this point. Here’s the full schedule for LEC Week 5:

SK Gaming – Shalke 04 | 7:00

G2 Esports – Origen | 11:00

The 5th week for LEC will be a decisive one for all teams since up until last week since standing change day to day. Who would have thought that G3 Esports would be sitting at 3rd place while Rogue is first? As for Fnatic and Origen, which were two of the best teams last split, both of them need a win this week in order to have a fighting chance for one of the top spots.

Here are the full standings for LEC prior to Week 5:

1. Rogue | 7W-2L

3. G2 Esports | 5W-4L

5. SK Gaming | 4W-5L

10. Schalke 04 | 1W-8L

Note that the League of Legends European Championship offers spots for the best performing teams for the Worlds 2020 championship. Will anyone be able to dethrone G2 Esports this split? Will MAD Lions be able to continue their reign this split after starting off as rookies in the spring split?
